All Wrong, I Think

[joggerjayne]

This year's (supposedly) "must have" shoes ... the heeled loafer.

They totally haven't done it for me.

I think the market was short of ideas this year, and came up with a gimmick.

I've been through wedgies, gladiator sandals, Uggs, etc ... but I haven't been able to warm to heeled loafers. I can't think of a good occasion to wear them.

So has anyone been wearing them ... ???????

(anyone here, I mean)

I'm thinking China Doll might have a pair.



Just in case:

I've read this twice and I'm still none the wiser...

[sherrardk]

I'd break my neck if I attemtped to walk anywhere in them.

[cazzz1975]

I have never worn heels

[joggerjayne]

I'm surprised you haven't bought a pair for your Eddie Izzard party, MR.

[joggerjayne]

cazzz ... aren't the tassled ones a bit "golf club" ?

[joggerjayne]

S-C ... it's about chatting ... like, you know, ChatterBank.

[cazzz1975]

yeah if you want to sink into the ground ;)

[joggerjayne]

Well, I was thinking golf "club" rather than golf "course" !

I can see Austin Reed shoppers thinking they are the perfect shoes to compliment their new suit.

Didn't these monstrosities rear their heads in the 80's, bad then, worse now.

[joggerjayne]

But loafers should just be flat, shouldn't they.

[cazzz1975]

probably not the council golf clubs then, the clubhouses are more like sheds

[joggerjayne]

Eccles ... I'm not sure if you're having a little dig.

To me they just look like court shoes with a higher heel.....

[joggerjayne]

woofgang ... that's not so far off the truth.

The Grey Goose hasn't taken the edge of your powers of perception JJ. ;-)

[cazzz1975]

there were the clog style ones out in the late 80s, where bros'ettes used to fix a bobble to the front

I like loafers but flat ones with smart trousers are the only ones I would wear, I struggle to walk in anything higher than a kitten heel.
